So, after the JP2 parallel character, Alcimus, the theory is that there was this "Righteous Teacher", who reigned for about 7 years ... Ratzinger was "pope" from about 2005 - 2012 (so about 7 years). He was then displaced by the "Wicked Priest" (Joanathan Apphus), and reportedly went into exile, to found the Essenes. So we have a guy whom his followers consider to be the "Righteous Teacher", but he's kicked out / exiled to form a new sect. Benny was kicked out and yet had followers, the Bennyvacantists who founded their own little sect / group, to be replaced by someone who was by contrast a "Wicked Priest". Of course, this Righteous Teacher was just another in the line of false High Priests.
